The centrepiece of this full garden makeover is a sunken gas fire pit, set into a rendered seating area finished with 3D stone cladding and built-in steps down from the surrounding garden. The wider project included new porcelain paths wrapping around the house and a porcelain patio outside the summer house, all edged with slate and flamed granite. The team built raised oak sleeper beds with bollard lights and spotlights, and created a brand-new lawn from what had previously been a very uneven garden.
The result is a striking, sociable space built around the sunken fire pit, where rendered walls form a sheltered conversation area at the heart of the garden. The crisp porcelain paving and granite edgings give clean lines throughout, the planted sleeper beds add greenery and structure, and the integrated lighting brings the garden to life after dark, with illuminated paths and beds glowing into the evening.
